More Than This by Patrick Ness

This story follows our main character, Seth, as he wakes up in a familiar yet surprisingly different world following his death. We get to see him explore this new world and discover some surprising secrets, which continue to develop at a good pace (without being overwhelming) throughout the course of the book.

This is a very well crafted story, both in terms of plot and character development. There are no dead zones here at all; I was gripped from the first sentence right through to the very satisfying and intriguing end. After having a run of bad books which I simply couldn’t finish this was a very good feeling to say the least!
